Do we want to fix this in 2.6.23?

If so then at present I'll need to merge 

kernel-userc-use-list_for_each_entry-instead-of-list_for_each.patch
convert-uid-hash-to-hlist.patch
fix-user-namespace-exiting-oops.patch

which is rather a lot of merging at this stage - surely more than
is really needed?
